i found the staff quite friendly. the hotel has three different pools and they are all very nice. the main hotel pool seemed super nice and relaxing to me. the rooms were very comfy and tidy.
i was disappointed with our room. it was closest to the road. this meant it could get loud with motorcycles.

Excellent Beachfront Boutique Hotel
beachfront locationdelicious foodfriendly staffpoor maintenance
This hotel boasts a beautiful beachfront location. The on-site restaurant offers delicious food and drinks. I especially liked the unique design of the entire resort, it felt very special. The free yoga and jungle walk are excellent activities. The staff is consistently friendly and helpful.
The pool needed better maintenance. I noticed a sewer smell coming from broken bathrooms. The 'hot' tub's temperature matched the pool, it was a bit disappointing.
